Track: Integrated Program Management

In this session we will review techniques and methods to develop a truly effective and fully integrated Project Management scorecard for quickly and easily assessing the performance of your projects.  Many organizations are using complicated dashboards and comprehensive reporting tools like Earned Value Management which in a lot of cases add unnecessary confusion and complexity to your projects and management teams.  With a simple “Integrated Project Management Scorecard” methodology organizations can quickly see what is going on, where the problems lie, and make decisions on key actions.

Through this showcase of simple tools and techniques attendees will gain an appreciation for how integrated project management works thereby demystifying the concept and uncovering how it will help them better manage their projects for long-term success.

Time is always of the essence at fast-moving missions at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC).  Launch dates loom.  To turn project data into information that can be used for decision making requires use of business intelligence software such as Tableau to quickly analyze and keep it relevant.  Business intelligence software can analyze data coming from a myriad of sources, including earned value and financial, and enables the ability to join and review data to quickly discover anomalies critical for decision making.

This presentation will cover the mass of data and provides examples of how business intelligence software supports data convergence for reporting.
